Learning outcomes
Ball geometry Improve your understanding of the concepts of plane and solid geometry, your way of thinking and your orientation in them understanding. CONTENT OF THE SUBJECT: The development of the early formation of geometrical concepts with the help of spherical or spheroidal bodies such as fruits, balls, spherical construction tools, etc. Remarks on continuing the topic in higher grades. Freehand drawing and geometric constructions on spherical surfaces. Spherical games on 3D models and on the computer screen. Gaining practical experience in primary school. The relevant methodology of dealing with young children.
Course content
KNOWLEDGE The student - develops spatial perception; - learns the basis and possible modelling of non-Euclidean geometries; - deepen mathematical knowledge through the representation of geometric concepts in a variety of geometries; - defines and constructs the mathematical concepts represented in multiple geometric models. CONTACT The student - be proficient in the use of the drawing sphere; - a deeper knowledge and understanding of both inductive and deductive ways of constructing mathematics; - develops constructive and problem-solving skills. ATTITUDE The student - represents that mathematical concepts cannot have only one structure; - understands and sees that mathematics is also a human construction, in which the creative mind has freedom; - represents that the comparative method helps students to understand the true meaning of mathematics the true nature of mathematics and to understand mathematical concepts more deeply. AUTONOMY RESPONSIBILITY The student recognises and accepts that the structure of mathematics is not monolithic and that mathematics is is not an isolated discipline.
